An interesting pamphlet, embodjing some cartons facts in reference to the internal reve nue, has just been published, from " which we learn that out of the whole popolatioo of the United States only 450,000 persons paid a tax unon incomes in other words, that out of the thirty five millions of our Deople. less than half a million have incomes of more than $600 ft jear. Those who have le6s than that evidently need it all to live on, and thus cpend all they: earn. The great mass of the people, therefore, are taxed only indirectly, through the duties of the imposts imposed on the articles, they con sume; and if these are increased, their wages must be increased also, else they cannot live. It is stated in the same connection, that one of the largest railroads in the country has adopted the principle of paying to its common laborers the price of a barrel of flour per week, finding this to be a more just and satisfactorily mode of measuring the value of labor than the price of paper money, as it is assumed that the price of the necessaries of life are more likely to follow the price of flour than the fluctuations of the currency. This, to a certain extent, may be a very good test of the value of labor: but as the price of flour must be higher or lower, accord ing to the extent of the grain crops, and the pticea of. other articles .be regulated by the amount of taxes put upon them through the agency of tariffs and excise, the rise or fall in the flour market cannot always secure a corres ponding rise or fall in other, commodities. If the crops shall be very abundant, "bread stuffs may decline below the comparative stan dard for many other articles, and if they bo short and the supply limited, then prices will be higher in proportion than the prices of other articles. The restoration of the whole country to wanted prosperity by the encouragement of production throughout all its borders, by the cutting off of every possible source - of expendi ture so as to reduce taxation, and by cutting off also the politicians and setting tbem aside in every quarter, while the people white and black; may labor undisturbedly, are the things that are needed are the things that are imperative! for the relief of all. Baltimore Sun. Oniqns. "Onions," says Dr. Hall, "are one of the most nutritious, healthful, and detestable articles of food in our markets. We never ate one to our knowledge, and never expect to; we can smell them a mile off, perhaps. A few grains of coffee eaten immediately afterwards, or a teaspoon ful of vinegar swallowed, removes at once the odor from the breath. If onions are half boiled, and the water thrown away, and then put into soup to be boiled done the odor will be but little noticed." There were 864,298 marriages last year in the United States.

WAR. i From the New York Tribune, May 27th, (Radieal.) - Gan a government, which,' after a Jong arid rduous struggle, put ' down an , organized and formidable rebellion, proceed to try and punish its defeated adversaries as traitors f The question is readily answered in the af firmative by ignorance and passion perhaps also by wisdom and calm judgment. ' Let us inquire and consider. " Unquestionably, a Government' may refuse from the putset to recognize its domestic foes a3 belligerents, engaged in lawful war. It may say to them, as Maximilian did to his Mexican adversaries "l oa are not warriors, but banditti .brigands, robbers whom j if captured by my armies, I shall treat as arrested felons." But this is a two-edged sword, as Max. is very likely to discover. The Government which treats its enemies as felons must expect to have its ad herents so treated by those adversaries to have its soldiers , shot or hung when captured, if it shoots aud hangs those, whom it captures. Whatever rule it acts upon will surely work both ways., - . - - On the main question, the doctrine generally held by American statesmen and publicists prior to 1860, will be found succiutly set forth by Daniel Webster, in his address on laying tbe corner-stone of Bunker Hill Monument (June 17th, 1825), wherein he" says of the conse quences of that memorable combat : ' "The batthfof Bunker Hill was attended with the most important effects beyond its im mediate . result as a. military engagement." It created at once a state of open, public war There could now be no longer a question of proceeding against individuals, as guilty of treason or rebellion. That fearful crisis was past. The appeal now lay to the sword; and tbe only question was, whether the spirit and the resources of the people would bold out till the object should be accomplished." " " k , Bear in mind that our fathers had not even declared, their independence on the 17th of June, 1775, when they fought at Bunker Hill j nay, they bad not definitely resolved on separa tion from the mother country." In the eye of British law-and of the law of nations, for that matter they were simply rebels, resisting the authority and the army-of their legitimate king. Yet Mr Webster holds that the naked fact that they resisted in battle array, under -the com mand of their constituted local authorities, pre cluded any civil proceedings against them as "individuals guilty of treason or rebellion." Of course,- Mr Webster did not originate this doctrine. He was not the man to do the like of that. He found it interfused throughout our entire Revolutionary history and literature. Thus, Chief Justice Marshall, in his Life of Washington, relates that, when tJeneral Gage, commanding the King's forces in 'Boston, ar rested several eminent -Whig- civilians and lodged them io jail, along with our eaptured officers and soldiers, to be dealt with as traitors, j Washington remonstrated "very seriously apatnst this unjustifiable measure," (says Marshall,) while General Gage "regarded the Americans merely as rebels, and : treated them as if the great national resistance they were making on principle was to . be viewed as the act of a few daring and turbulent individuals," and, as such, wrote Gage, ."prisoners whose lives are, by the laws of the land, destined to the cord." Wash ington at ooee instituted measures for retaliation; should this violation of public law and of public war be earned into: effect, and thereby brought the British General to a recognition of the just principles of civilized warfare, as enunciated by Vattel and other writers on public law., James Otis, the Wyclif of John Hus of our Revolution, Alexander Hamilton (in The Fed eralist,) and all, our Revolutionary publicists of any authority, refer to and quote from Vattel's Law of Nations as setting forth the judgment of the civilized world in accordance with the doc trines of WTeb6ter and -Washington above cited. Vattel, in his chapter on civil war, says i 4But what conduct shall the sovereign ob serve toward the insurgents ? I answer, in general, such conduct as shall at the same time be the most consonant to justice and the most salutary to tbe State Subjects who rise against their prince without cause deserve se vere punishment; yet, even in this case, tn ac-. count of the number tf "delinqncot!, clemency becomes a duty in the sovereign. A civil war breaks the bonds of "society and gov ernment, of, at least, suspends their force and effect; it produces in the nation two independent parties, who consider each other as enemies, and acknowledge no common judge.' Those two parties, therefore, must necessarily be con sidered as thenceforward constituting, at least for a time, two separate bodies, two distinct societies. .Though one of the parties may have been to blame in breaking the unity of the State and resisting the 'lawful authority, they are not the less divided in fact. Besides, who enall judge them 7 They stand, therefore, ia precisely the same' predicament as two nations, who engage in a contest, and, being ' unableto come to an agreement, have recourse to arms. This being tbe case, it is very evident that the common laws of war ought to be observed1 by both parties in verv civil war." For the same reasons which render the'observance of those (' maxims a matter of obligation between State and State, it becomes eoually, and even more necessarv in tho unbapT circumstances of twOJ incensed parties lacerating their common coun try." "Thus there exist in the State two separate bodies, who pretend to absolute inde pendence, and between whom there is no-judge. They, decide their quarrel by arms not courts of ciyil law J an4 as two different nations Would ao. x ne oouiration io ooscrve me coramea w f .r tn.w ohPr i thfnre ahacJate-i -indisfterisaMv bin Jios on .both Wtin. and the same ,tW tt,A 1- Af nmt . , lilVU auw avfv wu wHiir im noses am."' all nations in State." transactions between btate and .he whole lose. , , i ....... -M. i iii f . j - A flisconso ate nusoand.ous n est -some wnere 5 uie owuersinp ot a, mule,.

GEOLOGY AUD MINER ALOGY. " r ! '- Fearklin, N, C i May C, 1867. Mr Editor : At your request, . and " that of other friends,-1 propose to write a few brief ar ticles for your paper, the first of which will be devoted to the Geology and Mineralogy of the transroouotain counties of North Carolina. , It is due; to myself, to state that I served under the late Dr. Emmons as Assistant Geologist in thtf part of the State survey J -"-""My report was placed m the hands of Dr. Emmons, which, ho informed me was, with his own manuscripts, placed in the hands of the Governor for publi cation During the excitement incident to the breaking oot of the war the whole of the manu scripts were lost. ' Arid as there now is much interest felt about the resources of this section, I have Concluded to make gome general state ments, reserving to myself all discussion of the economical value of particular mining districts as the parties interested may require. - The Blue Ridge from the head waters of the French Broad to the head of Naq'talee is com posed principally oPGranite of a rather Gneis soid structure On the Northern, slopes it is regular Gneiss with Mica and Talcose slates; but about equidistant from the summit of the Blue Ridge to the summit of tbe Smoky foun tains commences the Talconio series of Emmons. The Smoky mountain chain is made up of. are nacious clay slates, with interfoliations of argil laeious shades, and a sort of Porphyrinic Gneiss. The Gneiss of the Northern slopes of the Blue Ridge contains excellent beds of yellow copper ores, which commences to Towns county, Geor gia, and passes through Macon, Jackson, Hay wood and Buncombe in North Carolina. Of the economical value of this- metaliferous belt I have not a doubt I have investigated it tho-' roughly,- and risk- nothing in the ' statement. This belt is marked by a Serpentine range which I have traversed for tbe distance of an hundred and sixty or seventy miles. At some' points on this range there are beds of valuable chrome-ore. There are also on this central Gneiss. belt out-crops of an excellent quaUty of Magnetic Iron,, which with Railroad ' facilities oould be made valuable. ' ' J v .This same central belt furnishes fine speci mens of Kjanite, Quartz, Christials, Tremolite, llutile, black: TourmoIiOj Hornblend, Blend, beautiful white Feldspar, Picrolite, ' Actinolite; Asbestus, Talc, both black and greenishr .Ex cellent cabinet specimens of these minerals may be had.. : . . v ' ' ' ,'' ; ' . ' There is also small cubes"' of argentiferous Galena found in Gneiss. 1 also found fine speci mens of massive Ilmenite, on Little Ivy The copper ores of this belt are different' from the ores of Duck Town, and are found in a different t class of rocks. - Here tbev occur as Conner Py- ritea with Green Malachite. The ores of Duck Town are a- black copper smut, partially oxi dized, in the first beds.- Under this lies cupri ferous Arsenical Pyrites, and at greater depth an excellent copper Pyrites. Ia.this belt-the ores are free from all Arsenical combinations, and are most admirably located for economical mining, being found, in Jiigh mountain elopes and ridges; so that the mines may be brained by adit levels and the ores storVd aod brought to the dressing yards. It is worthy of .remark, also, that these mountains abound in the, beet material for fuel for smelting works. 1 hazard nothing in'Mvifg that with Railroad facilities for transporting the'metai, these mines will pro duce' an immense amount of copper aj, as cheap post as any other mining district can do. Noth ing indeed, is" wanting bu t capit a l a rid Railroads to make this one of the most successful .mining districts in the States: . In addition to what I have said of the econo mical value'of these njetallc ores Copper, Mag jielic Iron arid ChtomiUm, I may , say that a more delightful climate cannot bo found from Canada to the ' Gulf of Mexico. . There is a balfxty freshness in this mountain air which ia unsurpassed;' and the pure waters of our mqun-. tain springs furnish the most delightful . bever: age that a benificent Creator has ever given to mankind.' indeed a people who cannot be con tented and thrifty and honest in this climate and by the uSe of this sparkling beverage of oa tare must be born with very decided! moral ob-. liquitiesi r ' ' ' ' . - : " ' Yours t'ruly, ' ' , C.
